Collected by Elton John & Billy Joel

Francois Faucher was born in Thetford Mines, Quebec, Canada in 1959. At the age of 11, he demonstrated great talent in painting and won his first prize in his hometown. However it is only at the age of 17, that he really started to paint seriously. Francois studied in architecture and graduated from Laval University, Quebec, in 1983. Six years later, he gave up his job in an architectural office to devote himself full time to painting. His work is collected worldwide, and is in the private collections of Rock Stars Elton John and Billy Joel. Faucher has had exhibitions in Ottawa, Quebec, New York, New Jersey, Florida, Chicago, Massachusetts, and Mexico and has exhibited art in group shows in Paris, Boston, New Orleans, Palo Alto, Holland. His work has been the subject of many TV shows, and been on the cover of 15 major books printed in the USA, Canada & France.
